They’re mostly dead.
Here’s my suggestion: stop with the moral outrage. The reason it’s harmful is because of the potential for manipulation, not because such relationships are inherently harmful. The potential for abuse and manipulation is such that we’ve determined the risk is too high to accept as a society. That’s a judgment call and a subtle determination, one which previous generations (pretty much all of human history) did not make.
Murder and assault are pretty much universally and instinctively viewed as wrong by all societies. Relationships between adults and teenagers has historically not been seen as such. That’s a cultural phenomenon that’s very recent. I think it’s an advancement in society, like how we’ve decided misogyny and racism is wrong. But before you decide that literally everyone born before 1983 is Evil, maybe step back and consider history and culture a little.

No it’s not lol, it’s just being toxic and hateful. Maybe it’s less unhealthy, but it’s still unhealthy.
